World Cup TMZ

What say we take a break from the heavy duty industry stuff. At least for one post. It's not like it's really paintball. Besides, it's boring as hell and peeps keep asking me if I have a death wish. For the record the only sorta death wish I approve of is a Charley Bronson style death wish equipped with .357 and over under Remington pump. Preferably on the giving end rather than the receiving end. After all, it's better to give than receive. (For those unfamiliar with Mr. Bronson look here).
Enough of that.
I've got a plan. It's a cunning plan. (VFTD e-prize to anyone who can identify the reference.) Here it is: Everyone coming to Cup bring a video camera and go crazy. Tape everything. Follow paintball celebs everywhere. Shoot your team's matches. Tape the pits. Interview the refs. Follow Keely everywhere she goes. Review the event live as you participate. Rate the vendors, the food, the omnipresent Disney simulacrums spying on everyone. Take your cameras to Old Town and Downtown Disney. Everywhere you go. That's the first step.
Step two is upload edited or unedited tape to YouTube.
Not only would it be hilarious to see during Cup--it would be like being surrounded by Japanese tourists--and for once there would be at least a partial video record of the thousand and one stories that happen at every World Cup.
What are you waiting for? Get your battery chargers ready and stock up on tape.

Is your plan as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University, but has moved on, and is now working for the UN at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning?

Brilliant! The cunning of my plan is so cunning it required a thousand foxes clattering away on a thousand keyboards a thousand days to duplicate and left the Gnomes of Zurich speechless with wonder and Pinky & the Brain green with envy.
